Meet The Founder Chardé
I’m a NYC-based Makeup Artist | Hairstylist, Creative Director, and the Founder of Triple Eight Creative, a beauty and experience studio blending artistry, hospitality, and culture.
My work has supported CNN, NYFW, Vogue Germany, national campaigns, and private clients who want beauty that feels personal, intentional, and elevated.
Everything I create — from glam to campaigns — is rooted in one belief:
Show Up Beautifully. In every part of your life.

Every product here supports one idea:
Showing up beautifully, in your own way.
These are the formulas I rely on for real skin, intentional glow, and long-wear glam.
Nothing performative. Nothing trendy for the sake of it.
Just products that work.
Use them to build your own Signature Glam wardrobe

Hair + Makeup Clients
(Celebrity, Editorial, Glam)
From red carpets to runways, my signature is intentional glam that feels both polished and personal. I’ve provided glam for television legends like Star Jones, worked behind the scenes at NYFW shows including Rodarte and Chelsea and Walker, and led looks featured in Vogue Germany, The Today Show, and InStyle Magazine. Whether it’s for an on-camera appearance or a national campaign, I bring a skin-forward, camera-ready approach that enhances, not hides, who you are.
